I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges.
Me: Y’all stand back. Grocery delivery is here.
Sweetie: I’ll get it.
Me: No, I’ll get it.
Doodlebug: But it’s our food.
Me: Not this time. This food is for humans.
Doodlebug: Unbelievable!
Sweetie: How selfish!
MoonCat: You wouldn’t happen to be getting any human quality tunafish in those bags, would you? Because if you are…

I am Doodlebug, King of the Old English Bulldogges. Where is supper, Lady Human?
Me: Coming…There! How’s that look?
Sweetie: That’s wrong!
Doodlebug: Yeah, where’s the good stuff?
Me: That is good stuff.
Sweetie: No. No. No. Where’s the good stuff! You know. The GOOD STUFF!
Me: I don’t have any of the canned meat today, if that’s what you mean.
Doodlebug: MoonCat is getting some!
Me: MoonCat is getting cat food made for cats.
Sweetie: Yeah, but it smells wonderfully stinky and it’s in a can so why not let us try it?
Me: Nope. Let’s not cross that line.
Doodlebug: Not fair.
MoonCat: Eminently fair. And delicious. AND FOR CATS. Some lines should never be crossed.

Sweetie: Okay, what are you up to, Lady Human?
Me: Up to? Whatever do you mean?
Sweetie: I saw you fooling around with our softie food. You hid something in it, didn’t you?
Me: Would I do that?
Doodlebug: Absolutely!
Sweetie: Yes, without question!
MoonCat: Do I even need to answer that?
Me: Don’t you want this wonderful smelling treat? Mmmm! It’s so good. It’s your favorite!
Sweetie: It does smell good.
Doodlebug: It does look good.
MoonCat: Ask the question, bulldogs. What’s the catch?
Sweetie: Is this a bribe?
Doodlebug: Yeah, you want us to do something we wouldn’t do otherwise.
Sweetie: But it does look good.
Doodlebug: And it does smell good. Oh, all right. Give it here.
Sweetie: Mmmm. Is there any more?
Me: Not right now.
MoonCat: You all sold out cheap.

Sweetie: What’s on the menu?
Me: Pretty much the same as always.
Doodlebug: Don’t tell me. Let me guess. Little crunchy brown balls and your attempt at cooking.
Sweetie: Where’s the good stuff?
Me: What good stuff?
Sweetie: You know. The delicious softie food that comes off the round metal thing that digs it out of the other round metal thing.
Me: You mean the big spoon with the canned food?
Doodlebug: Everything’s better if it comes from a can.
MoonCat: Cat wisdom from down through the years. I’m glad the bulldogs have caught up.
